Interpol says suspected pedophile caught in New Jersey

Police detained a suspected pedophile in New Jersey Thursday, just two days after Interpol made a rare appeal for public help in the international manhunt to catch him, the police agency said.

Wayne Nelson Corliss, 58, was detained in Union City, N.J., Interpol said. He is suspected of sexually abusing at least three boys from Southeast Asia thought to have been as young as 6 to 10 years old, the international police agency said.

Interpol had asked for the public's help because two years of police investigations had failed to determine the man's identity, nationality and whereabouts.
